Venus has lava tubes, and they're weird It has been suggested that lava tubes - underground tunnels carved out by molten rock - might be on Venus, and now we have direct evidence that this is the case

We now know that Venus does have lava tubes - and they're weird.

R.I.P. George F. Smoot (1945-2025) We will no doubt read many official obituaries in days to come, but all I can say is that he was a character, a very original thinker, a fine scientist, and a very nice man. Along with many others,…

My favourite quote from George came when I suggested that some methods used for studying the cosmic microwave background could be applied to the distribution of galaxies. His response was "Galaxies are shit"...

A study in contrasts, this colorful cosmic skyscape features stars, dust, and glowing gas in the vicinity of NGC 6914. The interstellar complex of nebulae lies some 6,000 light-years away, toward the high-flying northern constellation Cygnus and the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy. Obscuring interstellar dust clouds appear in silhouette while reddish hydrogen emission nebulae, along with the dusty blue reflection nebulae, fill the cosmic canvas. Ultraviolet radiation from the massive, hot, young stars of the extensive Cygnus OB2 association ionize the region's atomic hydrogen gas, producing the characteristic red glow as protons and electrons recombine. Embedded Cygnus OB2 stars also provide the blue starlight strongly reflected by the dust clouds. The over one degree wide telescopic field of view spans about 100 light-years at the estimated distance of NGC 6914.

Has the case for fusion gone cold? New experiments have failed to prove that cold fusion will lead to a practical energy source

So was cold fusion real after all? A new paper in Nature absolutely doesn't imply that. But it's interesting anyway. My latest column for @thenewworldmag.bsky.social

New comet SWAN25B already bright but near the sun

There’s a new comet in the sky, although, as of Friday morning, it was not yet officially confirmed. SWAN25B is best positioned for observers in the Southern Hemisphere. Because it’s so close to the sun, it will be tricky to spot. #comet #astronomy earthsky.org/space/new-co...
